(MENAFN- AzerNews) Türkiye's largest Aviation and technology event Teknofest will
kick off on April 27 at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport.
The 2023 edition will feature dozens of competitions in
different categories from smart transportation to chip designing
and model satellites.
This year, the organizers will distribute monetary prizes
totaling 13 million Turkish liras ($670,000) to winners, while
material support worth over 30 million Turkish liras ($1.55
million) will also be provided to the participants.
The five-day event, introducing cutting-edge technologies and
the latest defense products including drones, will also hold
airshows.
Organized by the Turkish Technology Team Foundation (T3
Foundation) and Türkiye's Industry and Technology Ministry,
Teknofest is held in various Turkish cities in even years and in
the metropolis of Istanbul in odd years.
Last year, the event was held in the country's Black Sea
province of Samsun, while its first international version took
place in Baku, Azerbaijan in May 2022.
As part of the Turkish Republic's centenary celebrations this
year, Teknofest was planned for Izmir, Istanbul, and the capital
Ankara.
The event in Izmir, slated for March, however, was canceled due
to the Feb. 6 devastating earthquakes, while the one scheduled to
be held in Ankara will begin on Aug. 30.
The first Teknofest was held in 2018 at Istanbul's new airport
and has seen a high number of visitors and hosted numerous events
since then.
